august wasn't all doom and gloom... managed to squeeze in a week in the napa valley, scene of the rolling hills windows xp desktop theme (geek trivia). anyhow, took a few days to get into the holiday after such a shit month. but once i got stuck into the wine and champagne (napa valley is a giant wine bar, 5 x 36 miles), i was pretty much smashed for the rest of the trip.
locals assured me that the cops didnt breath test, and anyhow, even if they stop you, they just ask you to walk in a straight line... plenty of straight lines in the parking lot to practice i say.
apart from the wines, napa probably has the highest concentration of quality restaurants per capita (according to the guidebook, and probably because the population of the valley is less than the number of people on my morning train) but i have an extra 2 kgs to my waist line, and a massive credit card debt to prove it too. try the pot de creme at bouchon if your ever in the area.

Nice work mate, Aimes and I were supposed to do some wine tasting near Bordeaux last week, unfortunately a bottle of red in 34 degree heat put an end to that idea - Good Times :)
